    I only watched the first 40 minutes which I would describe as 'fairly even with Spurs probably edging it' despite the fact that our recent 350k a week signing and Mikkie seemed to both be playing far below their ability. As I left the house I thought to myself 'if we get to halftime 0-0 we'll be in with a chance as we have to get better'.

    I was antiquing at the time. I got a rather nice pilgrim's flask with a naive depiction of a shepherd, while the wife took a shine to a Royal Doulton match holder/striker. Then we had a rather nice lunch. She had cod cheeks with chilli, garlic and spring onions followed by fish stew, while I had venison croquettes followed by jägerschnitzel.

    By the time I remembered we were playing Tottenham, it was all over. I saw the result, shrugged and went about my business.

    Life's too short to put oneself through the distress of watching North London derbies, I'm afraid. They're best ignored.

    I'm a great fan of cod cheeks. I often panné them and deep-fry them as a sort of scampi. Chips, peas and tartare sauce - is there really a better meal available?

    Yes, they're one of the things he always has. Cod cheeks, squid and those large Madagascan farmed prawns. Would it kill the daft sod to keep a couple of lobsters and a bag of clams about the place?

    I thought so too. It's like you were in my head like a frikkin carwash.
